Education
AMDG. If you want to make boys into men, it requires a brotherhood of men to set a disciplined example. Jason Craig joins the Kolbecast today to visit about calling men to conversion and brotherhood. He, Bonnie, Steven, and Jordan discuss disorders of loneliness in today’s society, the imbalanced emphasis on mothers to the exclusion of fathers in various homeschooling discourses, and the necessity of living out mercy and community locally. He also compares and contrasts centripetal and centrifugal forces in current life, shares about the organization Fraternus, and describes his experience of homesteading. All in all, his message is that the classical world is a lived culture that requires men as well as women.
